umad: Brady went out and won his rings with a bunch of nobodies.

While wearing women's boots.

I has a sad. Wanted him back home in TN so very badly.

I'm p*ssed! I'm f**king p*ssed! >:O

Tebow's young, healthy, continues to improve, healthy, has tons of potential bubbling beneath the surface... Oh, did I mention he's HEALTHY?

Peyton, on the other hand, had a BROKEN FREAKIN' NECK! Coming back from an injury like that is difficult enough, but in DENVER? In THAT altitude?! In his shape, he'll be lucky to finish the season!

I can't f**king believe the Broncos would do this! Now, they'll probably ship Tebow to Miami or Jacksonville, and he'll win a Super Bowl there!

Bringing in Peyton Manning to replace Tebow is short-sighted, insane, and stupidstupidstupidstupidSTUPID!

I... I'm going to go cry, now...

Sigh. One more go-round before all of my Tebow/Bronco pictures are obsolete.



RIP, little buddy. You were one of my favorite pixel collections....

Nick Nostril: Damaged goods.

/but we shall see

This could end really really badly.

/I think Manning should have hung it up and started coaching or speechifying or something.

SilentStrider: Well, got this one right anyway.

And if Tebow is Jesus, Manning is God... Does that make Elway The Holy Ghost in this situation?





If Otto Graham and Johnny Unitas are the Cain and Abel of football, Joe Montana is Zachariah, John Elway is Methuselah, and, of course, Peyton Manning is the wise prophet Ezekiel, then what does that make Tim Tebow?

I don't know why Manning chose Denver. It seems counter to what he should do, since their offense is based on the option.

IAmRight: the_innkeeper: I will take Manning and his issues over Tebow and his issues any day. Regardless of how he plays in vs out, he is a better quarterback.

That's fine. But your ceiling with Manning is exactly what you got last year with Tebow. I just laugh when people think this makes the Broncos contenders. They're still going to have a struggle just to win their division.

Broncos ceiling is much higher with Manning that with Tebow. That's so laughable a debate most wouldn't even entertain it.

Deadhouseplants: Morgan Freeman George Burns is replacing Tim Tebow???


FTFY

Yes, I sound old.

jj325: SoCalSurfer: Woo!! Get to watch rivers beat him twice a year now!

LOL. This just means the AFC West is a 2 team conference now. Raiders and Broncos

Hmmm...The Raiders finished third in the division last year, have released 6 or more starters because of overvalued contracts, have made no moves in FA to replace them, and have NO draft picks, NONE, until the 5th round (!) this year...yep, they'll be serious contenders, all right! Sounds like you should book your fight to New Orleans now, before the rush...I can probably get you a deal with a small upfront deposit (CC number required).

Denver....also known as "Not San Francisco".

WOOOOOOOOOOOO!

Where's Favre? Shouldn't he jump into the mix again?



/Tebow to Chicago
//would be amusing

Tebow got lucky. Very lucky. Notice how the Pats, with an ehh D, completely murdered him? That wasn't a coincidence. Tebow isn't very good. He was ranked 34th in pass percentage in a league with 32 teams.

Manning, on the other hand, is ONE OF THE BEST QB's EVER.

EVER.

He will most likely be rusty, but still will make good decisions and throw well. You will be better off with him..

BTW - Thanks for Brandon Lloyd. I bet Manning would like to have a deep threat like him. =)

IAmRight: davemelnick: Then he will once again whine due to reality.

At what point has he whined?

FFS, people, get over your idiotic, baseless hate.

Yeah, this. I don't ever remember him whining. People expected him to whine and all he did was have a surprisingly good attitude. I think he's great.

Hello my friend, how is your spring so far?
anyways:
I have mixed feeling about this, so I'm happy for our defense, we do need some backs though
remember, Elway played and peak at a later age than PAYaTon, who had a year off, and wants a QB like him.
and we still have Von Miller and a solid front defensive line.

Elway didn't play with a neck held together with chewing gum and duct tape!

This is stupidstupidstupidstupidSTUPID!!!

varmitydog: redmid17 : Denver's offensive line is pretty bad, especially for Manning's style of play. They need to get much better in pass pro, but the run blocking out of a traditional offensive set isn't very good either. Tebow was their best runner by YPC and without the possibility of him running the ball, the defenders know they can tee off on the running back. Obviously play action is going to offset that to a certain extent, but PFF and FO are both pretty down on the broncos running game. Broncos just need to sign a few targets, get the Saturday-Manning connection back, and be able to replace Brian Dawkins.

Payton Manning has the quickest release in all football, he automatically makes his offensive line look better because of it. With basically the same line in 2011 the Colts took 35 sacks, more than double of the 16 they took in 2010. And Painter and Orlovsky were a lot more mobile than Manning. Plus Manning reads the defenses so well that the running game will not lose a whole lot from Tebow's option based attack.

Not to mention that he is going to draw quality wideout free agents to Denver like frat boys to the bar during bikini night.

I'm well aware of the holes Manning covers on shiatty offensive lines. It still doesn't mean you don't want to improve it to give him extra time in the pocket. Also what quality free agent WRs are left? Just about the only one I can think of is Mike Wallace and he's an RFA (well worth taking imo though). The difference between an option offense and a pro-based offense is pretty big as far as run blocking is concerned.
